I tried watching it. I thought it wasn’t very good. To me it played like warmed-over Coen brothers, which we don’t really need because Ethan Coen and Tricia Cooke have already given us that.

But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself.

In '87, Huey released Fore, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip to be Square", a song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics.

He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor.

Their early work was a little too new wave for my tastes, but when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost.

Both my parents were only children. They did have cousins, and when I was a kid I called them my aunts and uncles. My parents also had a circle of close friends, who I also called my aunts and uncles, even though we weren’t related.

Are team captains referred to as “the yossarian“?

I always feel sorry for Thanksgiving. It truly is the middle child of the autumn-winter holiday season.

Excuse me, Mr Shadows, but Hall and Oates would like a word…

It's so funny that "blue eyed soul" is a genre. "It sounds different when a white person sings it!" (And it does! It totally does)

Yeah, I saw just one station ID for Dorktober, but nothing Halloween related. And apparently next month is Moevember. Like, are there any Stooges shorts that Moe doesn’t appear in? #MeTVThreeStooges
